The Whole Truth About Pirates

Salted through and through by the sea wind, fearless and free, one-legged and one-eyed, with a sword in one hand and a bottle of rum in the other. They fight as fiercely as they seek treasures, fearing neither God nor... the devil, and there is no one who does not tremble at the sight of their black flag with the skull and crossbones! Of course, we are talking about pirates. This is how they are portrayed in books and movies, and this is how we have come to imagine them. But how much do such romantic heroes have in common with real sea robbers? This book invites readers on a journey across seas and oceans, where pirate ships sailed in different centuries, to uninhabited islands where pirates hid treasures, and to ports where they gathered their crew. It will debunk myths and reveal the whole truth about pirates! You will discover the true life of a corsair, full of fears and dangers, cruel, unglamorous, and, most importantly, very short.
